Quantum Origination
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Welcome to the Chronoverse... wait, have you been here before?
The next chapter in the Quantum Series. This game was made for the LSDJAM 2020 hosted on Itch.io.
Quantum Origination is a game based on my personal dreams. Similar to LSD: Dream Emulator, Yume Nikki, or 21: The world, it is primarily a game of exploration but you may need to find lost things... There are 28 large-scale dreams to explore and 3 memories to find. Can you restore the memories of the dreamscape?

is the great expanse update delayed to the 2024 lsd jam?
Yeah, one of my other projects Nyt-Net ended up taking longer than expected so I’m focusing on getting it done and out of the way before I move on to this!
BEST GAME I HAD EVER PLAYED ON ITCH.IO! very fun game, I COULDN'T GET THE 3RD ORB BROO
This is one of the higher effort LSD Dream Emulator inspired games out there. I really appreciated the original characters and music that were created for this! I found it hard to put down because I kept wanting to discover more
(game starts at 37:40)My only complaint is that pressing the ESC key instantly quits the game. When streaming, it's common to press ESC in order to bring back the cursor to click something in another monitor, but here it instantly quits, making you lose all of your progress. This happened to me twice and it was very frustrating! I would have also appreciated being able to hold Shift to run, because some of the larger areas become tiresome to walk across after I had explored them already
Thanks for playing and the feedback! I do have a plan to add a confirm feature as I have that currently in Eggular and Nyt-Net. Once I've finished the next big update for this game it will have a confirm before exiting.
The worlds are getting a redesign in the next update to better reflect my dreams, but also to use new dev techniques I've learned. It should hopefully fix the sprint issue. I'm a firm believer of the standard movement speed should be sprint speed... Especially if the inclination is to hold sprint a lot while playing.
Finally, something you might be interested to know, I'm gonna be bringing VR support to this game as well. I noticed you had few videos on your channel about it. I think it will be a pretty unique experience! I hope you check it out when it comes out. At this point, I'm thinking it will likely be near the beginning of next year! Thanks again :D
Wow that's awesome! I'm glad you're still working on the game. I'll gladly give the update a try when you get to it
hey scrib, in the next update, can you make optional the filter? when i play my monitor is low resolution, the game just became ultra pixelated compared to images
Sure! I'll try to make that an option
the experience was incredible, even if was short, even if was for a moment, still, i enter again to remember.
Fantastic walking sim. Literally took me 3 days to find all the orbs, but it was a great experience. I needed to make a map for this that's so fucking big that itch.io won't even let me upload it so I had to put it on imgur instead. Very good work, dev.
Thank you! This is really impressive, your attention to detail is really admirable! Thank you for taking the time to play and map this out. I appreciate the feedback too! I hope you'll be back for the update next year ^^
During the white sky room, theres a track that plays and I adore it, can you tell me the name?
Its a custom track made from a section of this track:
I'll upload the soundtrack to my Youtube channel later!Damn thats nice, I can't wait, thank you!!
Hey man, its no problem at all, but I was just curious as to when you were thinking of uploading the track?

There you go, that's the soundtrack playlist on youtube for the moment
This is easily your best work so far. Super excited to see how it develops!
so far this is the best lsd game jam game imo
Thank you! Stay tuned, there's more to come in January :D
I like the idea you're going for in this game, I especially liked the vaporwave area that's being pieced together from dreams in Quantum Eternity, in fact a lot of levels from Eternity looks like they can be combined as if they were fragments of larger dreams...
That's a part of what I'm trying to do in this game! I wanted to create a sense of familiarity while also feeling different in this game. Similar to how places can seem that way in dreams. Additionally, merging the levels into one was something I wanted to do in QE but couldn't due to the way my level loader worked. Thanks for noticing though! I was hoping it would come across! :D
Great game loved Quantum Eternity and this is just as good.
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoy my games, I'm hoping to make this one as big as Quantum Eternity so stay tuned ;D
Not sure if it's just something on my end or game, but the mouse pointer is always visible in game. no big deal though. 10/10 game so far
The mouse pointer should now lock in the latest version! Glad you enjoyed it! :D
